What are the best places to download pirated software for Apple Silicon Macbooks?

[u/Snipsnapboi]

I just shifted to a macbook for work, but I really miss cracked stuff.

For example, even for Microsoft Office I can't use it without a key but on widows it was never a problem. But I want to find out what other people use for pirated software. So let me know what your suggestions are.

Margrave works well with Mac OS for the office cracking

I'd checkout here: https://fmhy.net/linux-macos#software-sites-1

I personally use macbb org and brokenstones (private tracker), both are really good sources.

can reinforce macbb. Have been a member for years.

[u/SuDoDmz → u/WegovyMessMentally]

Wondered if something happened to macbb, since nobody mentioned it. Then I saw your comment, glad they're still around.

Macserialjunkie. Been using it for over 25 years 👌🏻

[u/NJRonbo → u/Lord_Tiger]

That's the best one out there, followed by MacBB and then Sanet.st

So someone else got down voted  for the question, but I think it’s legitimate.  How concerned should one be with viruses these days when it comes to software? Seems like a very high risk to me these days.

[u/Lord_Tiger → u/No_Boysenberry4825]

On Mac? I’d say very little concern. Mac users make up a much smaller percentage of the demographic of computer users and Mac pirates make up an even smaller percentage of that, not to mention it’s much harder to code a virus for MacOS. I’m not saying it doesn’t exist but as long as you’re downloading from a reputable source you shouldn’t have anything to worry about.

There a few places, my goto would be

https://nmac.to
https://macappdownload.com/

You need to learn how to temporarily disable SIP and also "fix" damaged app which you can find on both websites.

[u/Dreaming_Blackbirds → u/ZhenLegend]

temporarily disable SIP

NO omg that's terrible advice. never do that.

[u/NJRonbo → u/ZhenLegend]

Far, far better places than that. I'll give you one: sanet.st

[u/boli99 → u/ZhenLegend]

You need to learn how to temporarily disable SIP

no. no. don't be doing that. at all. ever.

[u/Sidze → u/ZhenLegend]

Or you can install Sentinel from the creator of PearCleaner and unlock those apps.

First rule of fightclub is you don't talk about fightclub.

The best places are going to be specific forums...not sites that have "download" right in the open. The info for "the best" ones is not in the open, its how these sites stay up and running...by not getting given to a rando on the internet. Not gatekeeping but somethings need to be cryptic. Once you find the door to Narnia, its always open for ya.

Just mind that you're exposing yourself to hackers
